Robert Newson resolved COUCHDB-1207.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
The act of copying the .couch file to an unsecured server is not safe but
that's not couchdb's fault. Replicate your _users database to the target and
ensure the target server is trusted and secured, before copying databases.
